ASTROLOGY OF NOW

Since Eris was officially inducted into our collective psyche in 2005, there’s been an undeniable stirring—a deeply instinctual, sub-subterranean murmur that somehow, somewhere, we're being played. Now, as she draws into conjunction with Chiron, she adds insult to injury, forcing hidden grievances into the open, picking at those old wounds till they're confronted....

Whistleblower events in the next week (leading up to 7 May, ☿/⚷/⚨) will ignite fierce controversy. Alternatively, increased evasion or denial of obvious complaints merely festers, creating a breeding ground for bitterness, hostility, and unrest in mid-to-late May....

Even in the face of unexpected shifts, it’s preferable not to rush. When the transiting Sun and conjoining Moon in Taurus merge, they generate a potent synergy of firm resolve, inviting us to be calm yet unwavering in our convictions. Together, their luminary influence on the fixed nature of earth, offers the promise of stability and quiet growth, urging us to approach new beginnings with patience and clarity, rather than reckless haste.

Empowering Horoscope Messages for the Taurus New Moon, Sunday April 27, 19:32 UTC

We get the third and final hit of both the Mars–Pluto opposition and the Venus–Saturn conjunction in a single week. If relationships have been in intense contention—not just for weeks but for months—this is the final reckoning. A line is drawn between war and peace, power and surrender, commitment and collapse. Whatever’s been festering beneath the surface now demands resolution. Whether it ends in confrontation, closure, or radical transformation, one thing’s certain: a revolution is in order...

The episode covers all the grit and grime, dissecting this rare alignment’s global, systemic implications, and how it may be stealth-rewiring your personal timeline already.

Just know that the new Neptune age WILL NOT be about drifting in loose utopian fantasies and fraudulent, fanciful notions. It augurs an age where battle lines will be drawn and you'll have to stand up for yourself, blazing bright for all that you are at FACE VALUE...

It’s been a rough couple of weeks since those eclipses—stormy negotiations, wild mental swings, emotional torrents, frustration, delays, backtracking, double-takes, recriminations, and retractions—all climaxing with the recent full moon...

It is a volatile time, when scapegoats often fear they'll be punished or blamed for setting boundaries, going no-contact, or upsetting the narcissist—trapped in constant anxiety, walking on eggshells.

The next month forces us into a period of raw retrospection, shredding that nonsensical, superficial logic to pieces and laying bare the clever little delusions we’ve talked ourselves into...

Neptune barely recognises boundaries—Pisces to Aries is more of a fluid handover—but you’ll soon notice how it dissolves hollow bravado, unearthing deep-seated hang-ups long ignored, plunging you into a rising tide of unrelenting surrender...

Only those willing or reckless to fling themselves into great unknown create the impacts that truly matter.

Yes, things will shift, but it feels like we’ve all been trapped in a boxing ring, fighting an interminable series of rounds—exhausting, decimating...

As we have seen for weeks now, an out-of-bounds Mars in Cancer has proven dangerously combustible, inflaming the nervous system, flaring with protective instinct and emotional volatility. The propensity to spazz out hard is distressingly high, well beyond a red flag—it's a cry for help...

...if you're wondering if this spiritual deadness will last forever, know it’s just one low stretch within a challenging couple of weeks—not a yearlong crisis.

Cosmic energy shift, mid-eclipse climes, Neptune almost at Aries Point, Mercury/Venus retracting to Pisces, Mars squaring Chiron/Eris and a host of other puzzlingly weird and climactic events, all just ahead, and not to mention the FINAL ARIES SOLAR ECLIPSE, now only a week away...

Tormented by something relentlessly irritating, leaving you most unsettled and sleep-deprived?

The chaos of deep, unhealed trauma—not just personal but collective—is becoming aggravated and inflamed. These transits won’t just poke at individual scars; they rip open the hidden, systemic wounds that have shaped us for years...

Sometimes we lose our way not because we have strayed from the path, but because the path itself is disintegrating.

This is a full-blown ‘blood moon’ set along the Virgo South Node, indicating powerful endings, energetic purges, and the unravelling of outworn structures, routines and relationships...

The VIRGO ECLIPSE isn’t far off (next Friday), and these things don’t merely creep up—they grow louder and louder until they’re deafening, pushing us over the edge unless we get a grip and grow a heart.

Prepare for swift retorts, mental restlessness, and a hunger for new frontiers of debate or discovery. With Mercury in Aries, we can expect both invigorating brilliance and potential fireworks if we don’t gauge our words carefully...

Unlike Venus's usual forward motion, retrograde phases offer a unique opportunity to delve deeply into emotional truths and recalibrate our inner relational dynamics...

Even the brightest among us must come face to face with the darkness within. It's a vital component of the spiritual awakening these upcoming special lunations have to offer us...

"This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it's a feather bed." ~ Terence McKenna

As the last lunation before the eclipses, this New Moon at 09°41′ Pisces on 27/28 February is more than just your regular monthly reset...

The world may appear in a frightful mess, but emerging out of it and into clarity is only a few bus stops away. Time to hold your illusions to the fire. Join us on the Cosmic Bus!

On tomorrow’s cosmic bus episode (usual time—live) we take a deep dive into next week’s Pisces New Moon—a total shape-shifter of a lunation squaring Jupiter in Gemini, stoking every ounce of ephemeral mania, big bad double-talk, and hype-laden Bellushi blusterf*cks.

Expect crises of faith—moments when life feels hopeless, meaningless, when people seem untrustworthy, and even your own judgement runs cold...

Everything we shape or cling to; every attachment, every form, is, at best, temporary—a construct that reality ultimately rejects...

Expect neither grace nor compromise when fixed forces collide—yet, under unrelenting pressure, even the most obstinate hearts can yield astonishing breakthroughs…

Is everything I stand for as a man either dying out or being rejected? Is it truly so?

Aries energy surges with decisive, direct action, so any diplomatic overtures, peace talks, or cultural initiatives launched around this date could feel thrilling, giving that instant spark of “Yes, this might work.” Until you realise...

Venus in Aries demands movement, passion, and a fearless dive into love, creativity, and self-expression. But what happens when this fire meets resistance—when desire clashes with reality, or when impulsive attraction leads to unintended consequences?

MARS in Cancer retrograde and out of bounds, is deeply charged. There's no way to read what going on in there, no way to predict how it's going to act out...

Not since 2020, when Jupiter then joined Saturn and Pluto through the finger-waving, high and mighty—though most hypocritical—Capricorn (its sign of fall), have we seen such a schmozzle.

Geezus indeed—fragility doesn’t even begin to describe it. A school of Pisces planet vibes finds …

New Moons always mark that shaky threshold between endings and beginnings, yet this one, armed with Aquarian detachment, demands a deeper leap of faith into the unknown.

There's a restless, disconcerting energy pulsing into the next week, stirring up latent aspirations and daring us to think outside the town square...

After all the excitement yesterday, the atmosphere is dank heavy with tension and restless urgency, as the SUN grinds against SATURN and then fuses with PLUTO—a harsh mix of external frustrations and potently progressive undercurrents...

A certain stark clarity has emerged over the past several days, instigating a final reckoning with ties that have lost their substance...

Brace for a maddening week or two—when nobody irritates you quite like 'that impossible lunatic', yet strangely, you still crave their aggravating presence...

If you’re still trapped in the unyielding grind of repetitious processing, feeling destined to neatly box every facet of life for someone, then brace yourself for a jarring wake-up call...

If you're feeling disoriented, unsure who to trust or where to place your faith, you're not alone. We’re at a pivotal turning point, yet paradoxically must traverse it alone...

Venus in Pisces represents the highest form of love’s evolution—one that bridges the human and the divine, the physical and the spiritual...

Seriously, can it get much more complex??

Anger under MARS retrograde in Leo opposing PLUTO in Aquarius takes on a sharper edge, one that cuts through to reveal the underlying fears and wounds driving it...

Are you afraid something’s “missing,” giving too much, receiving too little? The Capricorn New Moon urges you to rip off the mask and see clearly.

Mutual reception—the awkward dynamic of two planets occupying each other's domicile—is like the planets are wearing each other’s clothes but aren’t exactly sure how to pull off the look...

There’s a strange ambivalence about expressing any affection this time of year—we’re reminded that real detachment doesn't mean shutting down or floating away but being fully engaged without letting the madness and chaos pull us under...

Under this tense last-quarter Libra Moon, now conjunct the South Node, our old codependent habits of seeking approval and external harmony at any cost come under intense scrutiny...

The solar energetic switch from 'highfalutin' Sadge to 'chief-executive' Cap is an epic moment indeed—another critical turning point in our celestial calendar, where the universe hollers "enough is enough—shit’s about to get really, really real"....

The Sadge war cry of "let me be me" could, on the surface, seem to be a noble plea for personal freedom, yet under the illusory currents of Neptune in Pisces (2011–2026), it has metastasised into a cunning shield for moral evasion, selfish indulgence, and the fracturing of once lucid, authentic truth.

Absolutely nothing. Zero. Zilch.

Chill-defined affections, questionable connections, overspending, and romantic illusions really plague matters this week...

“There's too many men, too many people making too many problems. And not much love to go round” ― Genesis, Land of Confusion

Whether you’re in one or trying to get into one, sexual partnerships are a mess of mismatched interests during this transit. Two completely different universes. Worlds cannot collide...

This lunation slashes through pretence, leaving only what is brutally honest and undeniably real. What survives this relentless purge is raw and stripped of illusions, but it’s ours to work with—if we have the nerve to face it and let everything else collapse...

This is another mighty reckoning, but now centred on what remains after the old empires crumble. How do we break apart, redistribute evenly to feed and sustain ourselves when the systems of control are dead?

Love, under Venus in Aquarius, becomes a daring experiment in freedom, intellectual expression, and radical authenticity...

This celestial reversal is not merely a hindrance to our external ambitions but a necessary descent into the underworld of our unconscious drives...

Oh, joy, it’s THAT transit again—the cosmic “STFU, sit down and think about your life” moment...

“Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.” ~Mark Twain

VENUS in Capricorn squares CHIRON retrograde in Aries: a resurfacing of raw wounds hardened by …

As MERCURY gears up for its retrograde through Sagittarius, the sign of expansive beliefs, cultural motifs, and grandiose aspirations, it prompts an overdue recalibration of what we hold as truth.

We're in it; this is it. It doesn't stop now; it just rolls on, shift after shift, until you let it go, come to the moment and become baptised by its need to rebirth you, over and over, until you become thoroughly unattached, transparent and pure...

Enjoy this clip (and the full episode it’s from) on a revolutionary force poised to upend our entire concept of reality...

Woe to those who still refuse to come down from their ivory towers, for tomorrow begins the 'Great Cosmic Equaliser'...

Since Saturn entered its retrograde zone back on March 23, it’s felt like life’s auspices started closing in, chiselling ever closer...

With Uranus, life circumstances carry an element of surprise, so be set for the unexpected: rude awakenings, sudden insights, abrupt changes in mood, decisions that feel like they come out of nowhere.

Ah, the classic "double bind" or "no-win scenario", where every option on the table involves significant drawbacks, ensuring a tragic, often unavoidable loss, regardless of which path you choose....

Take a moment to step into your body. You are about to make a decision that may alter your life’s course and guide you into the depths of what is yet unknown....

We are not negotiators but harbingers of truth; this lunation is no truce but a judgment day, a call for the reckoning we can no longer delay.

Things are tense, I know, but next Friday's Scorpio New Moon brings a haunting of reasons to tune in...

You're likely to be coming on a bit strong lately. You probably don't know it, but others are well aware of how oblivious you can be to the pressure you put on them...

As Capricorn’s structures collapse, the performative alliances, virtue signalling, and posturing of Libra look increasingly hollow. People aren’t buying it anymore...

This square between Mars and Eris extends beyond those age-old fights resurfacing; it’s about that struggle with clutching to our comforts and security blanket while still wanting to tear down whatever confines and stagnates true evolutionary progress...

As a rare special offering, I’m sharing my latest Cosmic Bus episode, recorded live for members on Sunday, with all my friends and followers so all can tap into the raw insights and energies in play...
